HAPPY INDEPENDENCE TO YOU ALL!!!

You can still be who you want to be!. Checkout the professions you can equally practice without studying it as course in the university.


1)BANKING : This profession is now flooded with workers who had graduated from courses not relating to banking profession. Imaging someone who had studied Yoruba or chemical engineering in the university but later got employed in a bank. This set of people only needed to be trained on some banking activities after they had been employed after which they are good to go.

2)TEACHING- It is very possible in Nigeria for someone who never studied education or any course relating to education emerging as a teacher.Regardless of the course you had studied, the point is- teaching can still be practiced by any graduate even without having an NCE or Degree in Education.

3)PHOTOGRAPHY- Do you know there is a course called photography? Tell me what are they studying in it? Even people who had only primary six certificate can do this job perfectly too.I don't see any reason me studying photography as a course before i can be a guru in it.

4)FARMING- I don't need to learn agriculture as a course in the university before i can own a farm. Anybody can easily be trained in this profession. There are books and handouts out there that can train you on fishery,snail rearing,pig farming etc or even on cultivation of crops. You could also find adequate answers to any question on farming you "Google search" online. Seminars on farming are also common where prospecting farmers are trained in farming. It can also be learned directly too from other farmers. This job can be practiced regardless of whether you are a doctor, lawyer,politician, or a banker. I know of a former president of this country, who owns a mega farm settlement despite the fact he never went to university not to talk of studying agriculture as a course.

5)DRAMA/FILM MAKING: an actor was once asked what he studied in the university and he replied "law". This answer made us to understand that anybody can become an actor,musician or artiste, irrespective of the course he or she had studied. You might have observed that hardly would you see any actor or musician in Nigeria who studied drama or music right back in school.Some of them are graduates of Law, medicine, accounting etc The 'funniest' thing is that those people may even come out better than people who had studied it as a course.

6)CHEMISTRY/INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY- Let me ask you a question. Is Aliko Dangote a graduate of industrial chemistry or chemistry? Of course not.But today he is a proud owner of a multi-billion dollar company in Nigeria that has provided jobs to many Nigerians. Other industries are also coming up in Nigeria today ranging from plastic industry to pure water industry, food,cream,rubber,biscuit,cements,sugar,salt industries and so on. The works performed in those industries can easily be learned from a specialist over a short period of time mostly from someone who had knowledge in chemistry or chemical engineering. You would no longer require the presence of such specialist after you had grabbed and finished up with those training. Meaning, you become a sole proprietor of those works and even train and employ others on it. So regardless of the course you had studied in the university, you too can learn the practical aspect of chemistry too and establish your own industry too. Thank God we have a lot of seminars that are been organized to teach people on how to make soap, nylon, asbestos etc. And from there you can be a millionaire and a proud owner of your own industry without having a certificate in chemistry

7)ICT PROFESSION- Some ICT companies now make huge money training people on computing, web designing, programming etc. The larger percentage of those attending such trainings and seminars are mostly computer illiterates. Certificates may even be handed over to them at the end of the training. This means that a computer- illiterate who had no knowledge in computing before would now turn to an expert making money through ICT and even training others without passing through the corridor of the department of computer science

8_ ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING- If you ask someone to get you an electrician to help you fix the wiring cables in your new house, don't be surprised if you see an o'level certificate holder at your door step ready to do the job.And this set of people would do this job perfectly and to your amazement. You now wonder if someone who had only o'level or even no education could be so perfect in fixing any damage to any appliance how much more a graduate who probably might have read courses like accounting, English etc and courses who had no link to science or electricity. If an illiterate or semi illiterate could be so perfect in it after learning about electricity, it means you can grab and understand such job perfectly too after learning it. Even though you never attended technical college nor learned about electricity or electronic in the university. I know of people who are civil servants and who also ventures in this job as a second-hand or part time profession .

9)MECHANICAL ENGINEERING- This is even worst!! Many people who work as a 'Radionic', car mechanic,generator repairer etc are mostly not graduate of this course. This job can easily be learned directly without holding a pen from the workers of such job who are mostly either illiterate or semi illiterates. Okay, tell me - is that mechanic near your house or that man who often fix your generator for you a graduate?. I'm sure i would have 80% 'No' as answer. This means any person or graduate can do well in this job even without learning it as course in the university .

10)MASS COMMUNICATION- Learning mass communication as a course in a tertiary institution is a tremendous waste of time. A graduate of English language, linguistics,language or even any other course can still become a tv/radio presenter, newscaster, a programme anchor even without having a certificate in mass communication.

I so much agree with banking coz I'm a graduate of mass communication working in a bank. My branch manager is a graduate of electrical engineering while the assistant branch manager is a graduate of mechanical engineering, whereas the customer care officer is a graduate of agric engineering.
Only a microscopic few piloting the affairs of the branch actually studied banking related courses. grin
And probably all of you will switch to MBA so as to climb the ladder right. Well I wouldn't blame the organisation because the supply of labour over demand is high that's why most banks take OND or probably HND staff because the wage rate is low as demand for labour is low. Secondly I will blame the government for not creating an enabling environment for investors to strive well because the numbers of industries are few.

Mass communication goes before anchoring programmes. Some job opportunities include: journalism,film production, editors(print and non print media), reporting, newscasting, mc, marketing/advertising. Professionalism comes here because you use the skills being taught in school to apply it to work. Not some that wakes up one morning to start spreading false news or mere rumours just to attract traffic. Mass comm shouldn't be in that list as a matter of fact, no course is useless at home.
Eductionist is different from mere teaching. The know how to handle students and pupil better than mere graduate that teaches in schools. They know different methods and approaches to apply to enable students grasp what they are saying in class. It so unfortunate that Nigeria government are doing enough to employ credible educationist into our school system. Thank God now that NUC instead that you either be an educationist or have post graduate diploma before lecturing at the universities
In summary of what you listed above, professionalism separate those that studied them in school from those that acquire the knowledge. That is why our school system 6-3-3-4 were designed. 6yrs primary school 3yrs Junior secondary and 3 senior secondary school. A Jss 3 leaver that couldn't further should be able to know certain skills especially if he/she attended a technical school. Most of these technicians we see around are either those that finish senior secondary at technical schools or those who acquired the knowledge from those that passed through technical school. Remember that industries are few in Nigeria that is why we have excess supply of labour over demand. When there are more industries in Nigeria to absorb laborers, you wouldn't see law graduate or linguist working in the banks instead they will practice what they have being taught. The excess supply of labour over demand for labour contributed to low pay for teachers in some private schools.

I came across this;


(1)
Put your wife in a room & lock it.
Put your dog in another room & lock it !!!
Open both rooms after 2 - 3 hours & see who is Happy to see you, and who will BITE you !

(Group members are advised not to try this at home as these stunts were performed by professionals; who are now divorced; and living happily with their dog!!)

Don't laugh loud ----
The extended version says...

2)
Put your husband in a room & lock it.
Put your dog in another room & lock it !!!
Open both rooms after 2 - 3 hours & you will be happy to see your dog waiting for you.. but you'll be angry looking at your husband sleeping like he never slept before!!!


3)
Always keep your spouse’s picture as mobile screen saver.
Whenever you face a problem, see the picture & say: "if I can handle this, I can handle anything!"… Superb Attitude for Life!!


(4)
If wife wants husband’s attention, she just has to look sad & uncomfortable.
If husband wants wife’s attention, he just has to look comfortable & happy.

(5)
A Philosopher HUSBAND said:- "Every WIFE is a ‘Mistress’ of her Husband…
“Miss” for first year & “Stress” for rest of the life…"!!!!

Million Dollar Truth:
If Saturday and Sunday don't excite you, then change your Friends.
If Monday doesn't motivate you, then change your profession.
If Monday is too exciting, and you are dying to get to work, then you should change your spouse!!

(7)
Do you remember the tingling feeling when you took the decision to get married?
That was common sense leaving your body.

(cool
Generally a man does not go to the place again where he has been cheated once…
But many people still go to their in-laws place..?

(9)
Pappu: Dad, l got selected for a role in a play for annual day!
Dad: What role are you playing?
Pappu: A husband!
Dad: Stupid, ask for a role with dialogues!

(10)
Man outside phone booth: “Excuse me you are holding phone since 29 minutes and you haven’t spoken a word”.
Man inside: “I am talking to my wife”

(11)
A very intelligent girl was asked the meaning of marriage..
She said- “sacrificing the admiration of hundred guys, to face the criticism of one idiot”

(12)

Abeg remove teaching from that list. We need to get rid of people who aren't trained educators out of our schools. Frustrated individuals (from the labour market) breed frustrated students. We can't go on like this.

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE TO YOU ALL!!!

You can still be who you want to be!. Checkout the professions you can equally practice without studying it as course in the university.


1)BANKING : This profession is now flooded with workers who had graduated from courses not relating to banking profession. Imaging someone who had studied Yoruba or chemical engineering in the university but later got employed in a bank. This set of people only needed to be trained on some banking activities after they had been employed after which they are good to go.

2)TEACHING- It is very possible in Nigeria for someone who never studied education or any course relating to education emerging as a teacher.Regardless of the course you had studied, the point is- teaching can still be practiced by any graduate even without having an NCE or Degree in Education.

3)PHOTOGRAPHY- Do you know there is a course called photography? Tell me what are they studying in it? Even people who had only primary six certificate can do this job perfectly too.I don't see any reason me studying photography as a course before i can be a guru in it.

4)FARMING- I don't need to learn agriculture as a course in the university before i can own a farm. Anybody can easily be trained in this profession. There are books and handouts out there that can train you on fishery,snail rearing,pig farming etc or even on cultivation of crops. You could also find adequate answers to any question on farming you "Google search" online. Seminars on farming are also common where prospecting farmers are trained in farming. It can also be learned directly too from other farmers. This job can be practiced regardless of whether you are a doctor, lawyer,politician, or a banker. I know of a former president of this country, who owns a mega farm settlement despite the fact he never went to university not to talk of studying agriculture as a course.

5)DRAMA/FILM MAKING: an actor was once asked what he studied in the university and he replied "law". This answer made us to understand that anybody can become an actor,musician or artiste, irrespective of the course he or she had studied. You might have observed that hardly would you see any actor or musician in Nigeria who studied drama or music right back in school.Some of them are graduates of Law, medicine, accounting etc The 'funniest' thing is that those people may even come out better than people who had studied it as a course.

6)CHEMISTRY/INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY- Let me ask you a question. Is Aliko Dangote a graduate of industrial chemistry or chemistry? Of course not.But today he is a proud owner of a multi-billion dollar company in Nigeria that has provided jobs to many Nigerians. Other industries are also coming up in Nigeria today ranging from plastic industry to pure water industry, food,cream,rubber,biscuit,cements,sugar,salt industries and so on. The works performed in those industries can easily be learned from a specialist over a short period of time mostly from someone who had knowledge in chemistry or chemical engineering. You would no longer require the presence of such specialist after you had grabbed and finished up with those training. Meaning, you become a sole proprietor of those works and even train and employ others on it. So regardless of the course you had studied in the university, you too can learn the practical aspect of chemistry too and establish your own industry too. Thank God we have a lot of seminars that are been organized to teach people on how to make soap, nylon, asbestos etc. And from there you can be a millionaire and a proud owner of your own industry without having a certificate in chemistry

7)ICT PROFESSION- Some ICT companies now make huge money training people on computing, web designing, programming etc. The larger percentage of those attending such trainings and seminars are mostly computer illiterates. Certificates may even be handed over to them at the end of the training. This means that a computer- illiterate who had no knowledge in computing before would now turn to an expert making money through ICT and even training others without passing through the corridor of the department of computer science

8_ ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING- If you ask someone to get you an electrician to help you fix the wiring cables in your new house, don't be surprised if you see an o'level certificate holder at your door step ready to do the job.And this set of people would do this job perfectly and to your amazement. You now wonder if someone who had only o'level or even no education could be so perfect in fixing any damage to any appliance how much more a graduate who probably might have read courses like accounting, English etc and courses who had no link to science or electricity. If an illiterate or semi illiterate could be so perfect in it after learning about electricity, it means you can grab and understand such job perfectly too after learning it. Even though you never attended technical college nor learned about electricity or electronic in the university. I know of people who are civil servants and who also ventures in this job as a second-hand or part time profession .

9)MECHANICAL ENGINEERING- This is even worst!! Many people who work as a 'Radionic', car mechanic,generator repairer etc are mostly not graduate of this course. This job can easily be learned directly without holding a pen from the workers of such job who are mostly either illiterate or semi illiterates. Okay, tell me - is that mechanic near your house or that man who often fix your generator for you a graduate?. I'm sure i would have 80% 'No' as answer. This means any person or graduate can do well in this job even without learning it as course in the university .

10)MASS COMMUNICATION- Learning mass communication as a course in a tertiary institution is a tremendous waste of time. A graduate of English language, linguistics,language or even any other course can still become a tv/radio presenter, newscaster, a programme anchor even without having a certificate in mass communication.
